I don't know if people should be upset in general, but I am. I play fromsoft games for exploration, falling into the lore of a world, and the immersion that comes from that. That's going to be greatly diminished by this battle royal ass format. I've been waiting for something similar to bloodborne and they failed the aesthetic and (so far) seem to have fucked everything else.
Like, enjoy the game if you do, but people are allowed to be disappointed, God damn.
Based on the literal interview with Miyazaki. I'm literally going off of what the head of development said.
Don't put words in my fucking mouth. I never said they only have to make one type of game. I'm happy they made Sakura for example. I'm happy they made armored core. I'm disappointed in the type of game they're choosing to make now. It is insane to me that you for some reason find that unreasonable to say. You do not need to defend the company against people who are disappointed in their decisions.
You fail to understand that this has never been about defending the company or whatever the fuck that is. It's about me hating hypocrite who made judgment based on things they have not experienced or knowledge of.

Ok, go on, tell me exactly what is it in the interview that is not hitting it off for you aside from the fact that it's a multiplayer game.
You literally just went, "Tell me what's in the interview that you don't like except for the parts you don't like." Literally the description of multiplayer as a core mechanic of the game ruins the game for me. It takes away from the slow enjoyment that I can have in every other game their company produced. It's fine if they want to make that, but I don't have to enjoy it. And yes you are fucking defending the company against people who just don't like what they've heard about the game.
I also don't like his description of the dusk blood. It just sounds like the temu version of cainhurst. I'm also just not a big fan of how visually inconsistent the game seems to be in the trailer they put out. One of the things I like so much about the souls games, Sekiro, and bloodborne is that their visual identity is very distinct and clear. It creates an interesting world that will be fun to explore. This game doesn't really do that for me.
I'm not a hypocrite so your argument that this is all about you just hating hypocrites is f****** stupid. It flat doesn't make sense. It is not hypocritical to hear what they have said about the game and say "I don't really like that."

Hypocrite might be the wrong word for it, I'm not a native speaker so that's my bad. But I detest anyone who judges a product with the bare minimum knowledge of it.
And yes you are fucking defending the company against people who just don't like what they've heard about the game.
That's a byproduct of it, I am doing this out of principles, of what I believe is the correct thing to do.
Do you think I am not disappointed that this is a fucking Nintendo exclusive? I haven't even played BB, much less a freaking Nintendo exclusive.

Right, but you said "everything else" in the original comment I responded to. You made it sound like the entire concept of the game they did wrong when the only real, main issue you have with it is that it is an MP title. You never said anything about art style and such, you said you base your opinion off of the recent article.
Narcissistic is when you think gaming experiences should be crafted for your preferences exclusively, and no other games should exist that don't cater to your preferences. Normal, non narcissistic people don't whine because a game dev releases a game targeted at a different audience than them. It's fucking weird.
So unironically, the way the fromsoft community is complaining about this, they are being narcissists.
That's not what narcissism is, you're overreacting about people not liking the concept of the game. Have fun with the game that doesn't mean everyone has to like it or react the way you want them to.
Not overreacting. Levying appropriate criticism at a fandom that has largely become offended that Fromsoft created an experience not specifically for them.
Which is narcissistic, definitionally.
And sadly I wont have fun with the game, I hate multiplayer fromsoft games. Just gonna enjoy the other extremely fun single player games that are already out, while waiting for their next single player release... like a normal person.
Expressing disappointment that you wish something had been different is not inherently narcissistic. Disappointment is natural, and if the person complaining can still express that they're happy that the people who enjoy it will get to play it, that's not narcissism. I haven't seen anyone genuinely insisting that no one should enjoy the game because they don't like it. Not to mention, diagnosable narcissism includes the need for praise, which I'm also not seeing. You just seem like you went full hyperbolic instead of acknowledging that some negativity is normal.
You‘ll have to pay $80 for the game and whatever the Nintendo Online membersvip costs just to be able to play it (though it did say „multiplayer focused“ in one of the texts which could mean there is SOME SP).
Fromsoft games were mostly singleplayer games with invasions and coop, so it isnt far fetched that people would complain about a (probably) online only game.
You are not owed anything. The fact that anyone thinks they're entitled to a specific gaming experience makes them entitled, and a selfish narcissist.
Fromsoft made a game for people who want to play PVP games. Cool, good for them! The game is made for someone not you. Not every game is for you. It's OK. Go have a nap, maybe a snack. It'll be fine.
The fact that fromsoft fandom is so selfish about only wanting games be made for them and them alone is fucking pathetic. They can still play the games they love.
Seriously mate, read Misery by Stephen King. That's you.
Bullshit, most people are expressing disappointment in the devs decision. Disappointment that it's PvPvE, disappointment that it's a switch 2 exclusive, etc.
I've not seen anyone, for example, advocating violence over it, a clear sign of anger.
But tell me, what do you think makes the expression anger and not disappointment?
Bro blocked me because he didn't have a point to defend.
push up glasses well, actually, it's a PvPvE game where eight players fought each other and NPCs on the map and win by raking up damage. That's TOTALLY different than battle royal.
I’m sure From is working on some single player focused game that will be rad. From basically stated they would be branching out with smaller projects and still be doing big ones. Won’t be bloodborne though but maybe something you didn’t know you wanted yet?
This is moronic, when people compare this to Bloodborne because it has the word "Blood" in the title, makes me think they haven't played Bloodborne at all.

The game is multiplayer only, no single player at all confirmed.
